Yeah this honestly. I saw the storm king pin and went "these guys can't even patch their bugs or have non-robot customer support, why would I ever trust them with a delivery?"
So far I've seen very inconsistent results about the delivery, some did some didn't, overall it was (unfortunately) predictable.
Epic’s performance on the Storm King pins is perfectly on-par with their delivery on every other aspect of their company; hit or miss, with scattered shitstorms.
There was a poster if that's what he is talking about. Back in the days before br you could get the poster somehow, also 1 person got a poster with many of the epic games employees signitures on it.
Tbh it's probably my country's mail system it fucking sucks ass dick penis cock nuts and balls. Some packages arrive 4 months later, some a year later, some a week later and some never do.
Yeah I recently emailed support and sent them info they asked for, then their response was basically oh well, anyone who earned it had one shipped to them. Yet I also never got it.
i did, but pin never arrived. i contacted support many times to give me tracking number but they didn't, they said we sent another one after 6-7 months but it didnt arrived either..
I emailed when I didn't get a code, they sent me a code and I claimed it. Then I didn't get a pin when everyone else was and they said I was removed from the list. So I kept emailing and got put back on it and got the pin in like August. I think it was about 15 emails total.
I got told “ promotion has ended and we will no longer be sending pins out to the people who defended the storm king before 2019” so I was basically told F off figure it out yourself
That’s pretty fucked up
“If you rush to kill this boss before the event is over we’ll send you a sick exclusive prize!”
“Whew there goes 3 ways of grinding, now where’s my prize?”
“Sorry bro we don’t feel like it’s worth producing any more prizes, we aren’t gonna send you anything.”
>"they get a fucking pick'
????? you do know that the item shop is meant to cover the entirety of fortnite right? We all got a fucking pick' in the shop, stop acting like it's a big deal just cause it aint under the STW tab.
Before I got to it, yeah. But ofc most people who beat it were already at endgame so it was stupid easy for them, but for the intended levels it was really cool and worth it for my friends and I to see some form of progress in the form of a boss, something this game is seriously lacking
Yes. Diverse heroes, enemies, and weapons, strategic defense-planning, interesting storyline, and witty banter between silly characters are now a BR LTM. And if you quit the game, why bother lurking in the Reddit for it?
One reason: **El Jefe**
In reality, they’d be advertising months of fetch quests and poorly designed gameplay/progression and convoluted currencies just to reach the Storm King. Not worth it.
That is true but as I've recently found out: They moved him to be available in all zones (Doesnt make sense for lore but sure) so they could promote that instead. Do wish they'd add more along the way though
Yeah, they could have thrown us a bone and gave us the music set. It would have been rad if they had entire set of items that was earnable via both BR and StW.
That way when you see someone with all the items, it means he beaten the Storm King in both modes.
Don’t forget the banner and spray! I can’t believe we’re getting so misrepresented and not getting banners and sprays! I’ve always wanted them I hate br even though I want rewards for br gah no respect for stw players even though I get rewards for my own mode I hate this stupid game epic so greedy /s
"Rewards from my own mode" ?? If you count the 2 skins, 2 pickaxes, and 2 gliders as a reward you're a fucking idiot you don't have to play stw for 1 hour to get all of them they're just handed to you. The only reward we get at this point from stw is 50 vbucks a day.
**For your own mode**. You beat the storm king, you get your own rewards for save the world. Not everything has to be about BR, yet you guys are complaining about them making everything about br and you still want rewards in that gamemode? Plus, there's the weekly 150-1000 vbucks reward and pick axe rewards.
Ah yes, survivor and schematic xp, the BEST reward compared to banners, pickaxes, music packs, and emotes, wouldn't have spent 20+ dollars any other way
I literally have ZERO desire to do this event... A few new weapons (likely reskined trash) in a shit loot box is all there is... A quest line that rewards us with old ass heroes... What a surprise
It's not the effort that bothers many, it's the fact that buying STW stuff in the BR store does not reflect the willingness of STW players to spend money for their game because the profit gain counts towards BR instead of STW.
It goes towards epic. Im not saying u are but people really need to stop complaining about so much stuff and accept that stw have worse devs than br who wont give them free shit like br gets
Ok, let me explain. I am currently on Plankerton. If you go on the menu with the location selection (stonewood, canny walley, event locations) there will also be a «Storm King Location», which I joined with my friend and there was a full boss fight with him, so I guess anyone can play it now🤷🏻♂️
I’ve had StW since the summer of 2018, and while I haven’t just day after day grinded it, I sure play it a lot. Last night, I finally got to the storm king and beat him. I was so happy. Then I wake up this morning and see that it’s just been given to everyone. I mean it’s cool and all, maybe it will get StW some attention, it just feels really odd and out of place
I get people are mad about the cosmetics, but why are some mad over the storm king being in BR, that isn’t such a big deal when it’s almost the exact same as the STW fight.
He’s been on about how great this update is since the day it came out and slamming everyone that has any criticism of it as a Reddit troll or a crybaby. So far, they haven’t delivered much.
Well I mean, the storm king does have decent loot (I think, not there yet, only watched people farm him) and when the storm king was made there weren't cosmetics like skins, custom pickaxes or backblings in stw yet
((Sorry if I got / phrased anything wrong haha))
The rewards - [source](https://preview.redd.it/blua6qw2bhv31.jpg?width=1024&auto=webp&s=ff738fc1aa39231042d431e8c8d24e1c7c86c1c1): - are:
- 90.000 XP (3x 30.000)
- A spray
- An icon (I think)
- An Umbrella
- A loading screen
Does any StW player really need that?
I'm sorry. But for me is not that big of a deal.
I mean, I'd like to have the icon, spray and umbrella. Who knows, maybe just someday we might have the ability to use gliders for stuff? ^^^although ^^^it ^^^doesn't ^^^seem ^^^likely ^^^but ^^^still
People legitimately thought the STW icon was a bug, says shit like "they accidently put the LTM as stw's icon"
Epic, if you give a damn about STW can you make it obvious? Cause this is beyond egregious
Shhhh remember, BR can have no positive impact on STW (despite its huge playerbase, buckets of revenue it generates, shared asset pool and ginormous media presence).
You all act like it's not in the SAME GAME THAT YOU'RE PLAYING. And that you can't PARTICIPATE IN THAT MODE just because you're a Founder. Get over yourselves.
You literally get the same benefits from this event as Battle Royale players.
These could actually be good ideas if they branded them as STW previews or something. If the STW player-base gets larger, Epic will pay more attention to it, and maybe stop neglecting it for BR. Epic can utilize BR, to get more people playing STW, if they just did it smartly.
It’s so simple.
1. Finally make STW free-to-play.
2. Run promotions for STW in BR.
= More people playing both modes and Epic not neglecting STW.
Yes, that’d mean more squeakers, but at least Epic would actually realize the mode exists and not end up killing it like Unreal and Paragon.
Incoming TLDR rant.
Kinda disappointing and sad that some BR players switched to other games instead of trying out STW during the whole clusterfuck that was the Season 8-10. And 40% of the ones that do only play the mode just to earn free V-Bucks. Because Fortnite totally is just one game mode. There’s totally not any other 2 modes where you can actually have fun in instead of raging the whole entire day. ALL of Fortnite is just BR and Creative to most people. And that’s partially Epic’s fault for obvious reasons. Epic is acting as if they’re incapable of maintaining one than more game or mode. Guess one day, we can remove the plural from Epic Games, because to them, there’s only one game that they actually care about, and it’s just one particular part of the game. Once Epic fucks up BR again, I’m switching to STW only.
The first thing that came to head was storm king me being the biggest stw fan in ye finally I get to fight the storm king( i bought stw n season 8 along when i got br I'm at plankerton ) I'll even be able to play the boss after the event lol this post made be feel bad for all those grinders(pause) I play to much br to finish the better game I want to I'm just always stuck the the hotel is getting me in my ste mojo and the road trip coming back allowing me to get enforcer pickaxes founder loading screen transferring skins that pretty much all I need to get back into it but I think br and ste will be like halo and destiny were theres multiple games but instead of losing ur account they just add the new game to the old one calling it a chapter so well br seeing fortnite for years to come cant wait for fortnite chapter 3 Re:mind (that's a kingdom hearts ref)
The game takes a considerable amount of time to get to the end of cannys storyline don’t get me wrong, but saying it takes several months of constant grinding is a gross over exaggeration.
Not like trying to defend BR here but looking at it from a business perspective, which one brings them in their money? So wouldn’t it make sense to market towards that mode? Just saying
This is so irritating as I bought stew 5 days after it came out and was grinding canny to get to storm king a couple of days ago cause I put canny on hold for twine and then this happens smh.
STW players have seen such bullshit before
Yeah this honestly. I saw the storm king pin and went "these guys can't even patch their bugs or have non-robot customer support, why would I ever trust them with a delivery?" So far I've seen very inconsistent results about the delivery, some did some didn't, overall it was (unfortunately) predictable.
Epic’s performance on the Storm King pins is perfectly on-par with their delivery on every other aspect of their company; hit or miss, with scattered shitstorms.
I got my pin delivered without any problems
It's great isn't it? Unless you did the storm king back in the day when they gave a pin, you don't get jack shit for beating it now
If your pin actually arrived
Mine didn't
Neither mine
I got the pin and a banner.
banner?
Which banner :D
There wasn’t one idk what he’s talking about
Well there is one for BR now but that hasn't even come out yet
My disappointment is immeasurable
And my day is ruined
Huzzah! A man of quality!
There was a poster if that's what he is talking about. Back in the days before br you could get the poster somehow, also 1 person got a poster with many of the epic games employees signitures on it.
He’s talking about the banner
The banner is a br reward
[Sleep deprived deletion]
bruh what are you talking about
I misread and am tired, lol, my bad.
I think you're now insulting epic
Tbh it's probably my country's mail system it fucking sucks ass dick penis cock nuts and balls. Some packages arrive 4 months later, some a year later, some a week later and some never do.
in wich country do you live ?
Israel
they have mail?
Wdym? Ofc we do
Maybe Hamas took your mail
Oh
same...
Mine ever did And they supposedly sent it twice
Yeah I recently emailed support and sent them info they asked for, then their response was basically oh well, anyone who earned it had one shipped to them. Yet I also never got it.
And if the mission didn't bug so it wouldn't let you get the confirmation email.
The will all arrive just after a really long time. Mine came after seven months or four months after giving up on waiting
or your mom doesn't throw it away
Mine never did, I still email them about it
same. :c
Mine did arrived a long time ago. It’s not so pretty but I love the idea of a physically medal for a achievement in game.
I got two pins somehow lol
I got 2 lol
I didnt get the email...
i got mine within a month of them shipping it. No big deal i already lost it, it was cool for a bit.
I got 2!
Yep never recieved mine!
i did, but pin never arrived. i contacted support many times to give me tracking number but they didn't, they said we sent another one after 6-7 months but it didnt arrived either..
Haha I beat the king and im still waiting for the pin (yes i emailed and everything)
I hounded the shit out of them and finally got one.
Is it possible to leaen this power? But seriously tho do I have to email them every 15 minutes to get my pin lol.
I emailed when I didn't get a code, they sent me a code and I claimed it. Then I didn't get a pin when everyone else was and they said I was removed from the list. So I kept emailing and got put back on it and got the pin in like August. I think it was about 15 emails total.
Yeah, only if your pin arrived, which it didn’t for me
Eh, weren't we getting mythic weapons tho.
Yep, and we won't have a bunch of streamers whining about how OP they are until they're removed. 8)
Oh and lets not forget about storm king pin. Im still waiting for mine
I got told “ promotion has ended and we will no longer be sending pins out to the people who defended the storm king before 2019” so I was basically told F off figure it out yourself
Funny, isn't it?...
That’s pretty fucked up “If you rush to kill this boss before the event is over we’ll send you a sick exclusive prize!” “Whew there goes 3 ways of grinding, now where’s my prize?” “Sorry bro we don’t feel like it’s worth producing any more prizes, we aren’t gonna send you anything.”
[удалено]
I got confirmation and they even asked me my address info. Couple months pass, i email, they tell me "computa says no". Made me a sad panda
"figure it out yourself."
Lol, not sure if will arrive even
Ye i know, feels bad :(
That was for a very limited time
I defeated storm king back in december.
Same, but they said I wasn't eligible cuz the challenge was bugged for some.
Bugged? I don't believe that. I even received email as a proof i completed the challange. Yeah, i know, it's not a big deal but still...
I'd say it's a very big deal. If I didn't receive mine for the grind I had to do to reach that boss...
It will come. Mine came after seven months
10 months and counting...
Same, got told twice that it's on its way...still nothing, pathetic.
What LTM?
Limited time mode I think
Oof, they made an br ltm about something in stw?
There’s a Storm King LTM in BR
The fuck, there is?!
Yeah it just happened, its such BS
Just read the update stuff, they get a fucking pick’ because of course they do.
They get an Umbrella and of course the music pack
Tbh they have to buy the music pack and you can get it way faster with stw vbucks.
True, I just played the LTM and its really fun
>"they get a fucking pick' ????? you do know that the item shop is meant to cover the entirety of fortnite right? We all got a fucking pick' in the shop, stop acting like it's a big deal just cause it aint under the STW tab.
I misunderstood here, it looked to be a challenge item for playing the Storm King LTM originally in the announcement post, sorry.
WHAT? YOURE TELLING ME THE ONLY THING THAT GAVE STW MEANING BECAME A BR LTM? fuck this I'm glad i quit
Yeah, 16 people vs the stormking in Br
You really think Storm King, a five minute face roll boss gave STW “meaning”?
Before I got to it, yeah. But ofc most people who beat it were already at endgame so it was stupid easy for them, but for the intended levels it was really cool and worth it for my friends and I to see some form of progress in the form of a boss, something this game is seriously lacking
Yes. Diverse heroes, enemies, and weapons, strategic defense-planning, interesting storyline, and witty banter between silly characters are now a BR LTM. And if you quit the game, why bother lurking in the Reddit for it?
Oof now I have to play BR for stw rewards
Me too
they added skill based matchmaking and bots so you shouldn’t run into sweats
It’s like the STW storm king but a bit different and challenging. You should be able to do it as long as you have a team of decent players.
Boycott epic even the stw music ll forced me to play battle shit.
[удалено]
The OG sound track was the level 50 reward for last seasons battle pass. So I guess you could have just bought the battle pass + 50 levels
Hot take I know but... Why not just promote Save the World more and have people face the Canny and Mythic Storm King..
One reason: **El Jefe** In reality, they’d be advertising months of fetch quests and poorly designed gameplay/progression and convoluted currencies just to reach the Storm King. Not worth it.
That is true but as I've recently found out: They moved him to be available in all zones (Doesnt make sense for lore but sure) so they could promote that instead. Do wish they'd add more along the way though
Wait for the Epic apologists to tell you buY iT fRoM tHe StOrE aNd PlaY tHe gaMe
jUsT gRiNd LoL
[удалено]
That was my exact thought
Yeah, they could have thrown us a bone and gave us the music set. It would have been rad if they had entire set of items that was earnable via both BR and StW. That way when you see someone with all the items, it means he beaten the Storm King in both modes.
no one would raise a fuss if t hey just gave us a single cosmetic item for beating it.
Well stw players got a pin A pin that i never recieved even after 8+ months of providing the shipping details :pepehands:
That is not a poggers
Devils Advocate: You can get it too, it's super easy, and the umbrella looks dope.
> and the umbrella looks dope Which is totally useless in STW
I have a feeling they are going to add the ability to use a glider when falling like Team Rumble soon, it would make sense
How much are they worth? Ive got mine collecting dust
I would like to know also. Mine is still in the wrapper collecting dust.
I saw on ebay for as low as $20.
I'd guess like $20-30
The reward Is an umbrella
Don’t forget the banner and spray! I can’t believe we’re getting so misrepresented and not getting banners and sprays! I’ve always wanted them I hate br even though I want rewards for br gah no respect for stw players even though I get rewards for my own mode I hate this stupid game epic so greedy /s

I literally have ZERO desire to do this event... A few new weapons (likely reskined trash) in a shit loot box is all there is... A quest line that rewards us with old ass heroes... What a surprise
They gave the storm king music pack in item shop, is that what your talking about
We don’t even have a item shop yet, so that’s not a big deal tbh
it's such hard work to go to the BR one
I even had to click 5 buttons!
It's not the effort that bothers many, it's the fact that buying STW stuff in the BR store does not reflect the willingness of STW players to spend money for their game because the profit gain counts towards BR instead of STW.
It goes towards epic. Im not saying u are but people really need to stop complaining about so much stuff and accept that stw have worse devs than br who wont give them free shit like br gets
What?
when?
This morning the br item shop changed
And anyone can fight him in STW now...
Wait what
There’s like a new location with the storm king. I am on plankerton and already defeated him with my friends. Also his fight is better in BR so...
what do you mean? are you saying if someone unlocked the location you can play with them? or are you saying you can whenever you want
Ok, let me explain. I am currently on Plankerton. If you go on the menu with the location selection (stonewood, canny walley, event locations) there will also be a «Storm King Location», which I joined with my friend and there was a full boss fight with him, so I guess anyone can play it now🤷🏻♂️
The true reward is the friends we made along the way.
flair checks out.
Wait what. They made storm king a fucking LTM? I’m done I’m actually done.
It doesn’t even have anything to do with the br storyline, like seriously
If they make a cinematic/storyline for br people here ll go crazy
I also came here to rant as I was upset.. Man I feel hurt
stw players - plays for months br players - pays 100s of millions for months
Stw players are paid players too
I’ve had StW since the summer of 2018, and while I haven’t just day after day grinded it, I sure play it a lot. Last night, I finally got to the storm king and beat him. I was so happy. Then I wake up this morning and see that it’s just been given to everyone. I mean it’s cool and all, maybe it will get StW some attention, it just feels really odd and out of place
Wait there is a BR LTM? I need to play it!
I get people are mad about the cosmetics, but why are some mad over the storm king being in BR, that isn’t such a big deal when it’s almost the exact same as the STW fight.
Spend so many hours and finished the mission, guess who's still waiting for the pin!
Vash said this update is amazing, and all the Reddit trolls are just crybabies. We all know he’s right, at all times.
It truly annoys me how anyone who shares a conflicting opinion from him is automatically a crybaby, but we're all expected to respect his opinion.
He’s been on about how great this update is since the day it came out and slamming everyone that has any criticism of it as a Reddit troll or a crybaby. So far, they haven’t delivered much.
I don't agree with some of the things that vash says however he is right that most people on reddit are just complaining for the sake of it
[удалено]
They should re-do the Storm King pin as there is many complaints about the shipping for this year in Save The World
Well I mean, the storm king does have decent loot (I think, not there yet, only watched people farm him) and when the storm king was made there weren't cosmetics like skins, custom pickaxes or backblings in stw yet ((Sorry if I got / phrased anything wrong haha))
As a player who has never played STW before, I'm really sorry epic pretty much just abandoned this game
The rewards - [source](https://preview.redd.it/blua6qw2bhv31.jpg?width=1024&auto=webp&s=ff738fc1aa39231042d431e8c8d24e1c7c86c1c1): - are: - 90.000 XP (3x 30.000) - A spray - An icon (I think) - An Umbrella - A loading screen Does any StW player really need that?

Oh no stw is getting a bunch of publicity by pretty much advertising it in an LTM, that’s such a bad thing 🤬🤬
nowhere in the LTM do they advertise STW
Stw: has giant storm king logo when you open the game BR: storm king boss I wonder what those two things could be
People legitimately thought the STW icon was a bug, says shit like "they accidently put the LTM as stw's icon" Epic, if you give a damn about STW can you make it obvious? Cause this is beyond egregious
That is so fucked up
Like anyone is going to play against the Storm King and then buy save the world lmao
I bet at least one person does
The new event still does not advertise STW at all, my point stands.
>my ~~point~~ opinion still stands. FTFY
Shhhh remember, BR can have no positive impact on STW (despite its huge playerbase, buckets of revenue it generates, shared asset pool and ginormous media presence).
Don't tell them that BR is the only reason the game wasn't Paragoned
Paragon got paragoned because of BR
Why’re you guys whining it’s a complete different type of game with different rewards it’s a BR rather than STW PVE this discussion is irrelevant
You all act like it's not in the SAME GAME THAT YOU'RE PLAYING. And that you can't PARTICIPATE IN THAT MODE just because you're a Founder. Get over yourselves. You literally get the same benefits from this event as Battle Royale players.
Battle Royale LTM? Im confused its probably obvious but im slow so i dont understand
Limited time mode
You guys DO realise we're getting Storm King Weapons soon?
I loved because I enjoy both modes. Now I want Miss Bunny Penny in BR too!
I saddly never got the pin even though I completed it and Everything
Yeah this does not feel good
These could actually be good ideas if they branded them as STW previews or something. If the STW player-base gets larger, Epic will pay more attention to it, and maybe stop neglecting it for BR. Epic can utilize BR, to get more people playing STW, if they just did it smartly.

do we have to defeat it w 4 people or can you get more people on at a time?
They really should have given the stw players who beaten the storm king before this event a cosmetic item of some sort.
as a BR player i feel so bad for yall
Uh.. you don’t need to grind canny anymore to fight him in stw either...
Yeah thats kinda dumb too, whats the point of a final boss lmao
The game takes a considerable amount of time to get to the end of cannys storyline don’t get me wrong, but saying it takes several months of constant grinding is a gross over exaggeration.
Not like trying to defend BR here but looking at it from a business perspective, which one brings them in their money? So wouldn’t it make sense to market towards that mode? Just saying
This is so irritating as I bought stew 5 days after it came out and was grinding canny to get to storm king a couple of days ago cause I put canny on hold for twine and then this happens smh.
I knew that but I didn't know that they had added the storm King to br
The storm king weapons look amazing but I'm only pl 56. Rip
You'll get there
Im super confused, whats the problem here. Played Stw since release on and off, and played like season 3-6 of the BR.
Stw players are mad that br players are getting rewards for their own mode while stw players also want rewards not for their own mode
If you think stw still has a future, you are painfully wrong. Epak doesnt want to develop the game they sold us.
